Learn about Filtering & Sorting in WaymakerOS.

FilteringSorting

Find the exact rows you need with column-based filters and multi-column sorting.

Quick filter

Click the Filter button above the table to open the filter bar. Select a column, choose an operator, and enter a value.

Filter operators

Column typeOperators
Textequals, contains, starts with, ends with, is empty, is not empty
Numberequals, greater than, less than, between, is empty
Dateequals, before, after, between, is today, this week, this month
Selectequals, is any of, is none of, is empty

Combining filters

Click Add Filter to add multiple conditions. Filters combine with AND logic — rows must match all conditions.

Example: Show rows where Status = "Active" AND Created Date is after January 1, 2026.

Sorting

Click any column header to sort by that column:

  • First click — sort ascending (A→Z, 1→9, oldest→newest)
  • Second click — sort descending (Z→A, 9→1, newest→oldest)
  • Third click — remove sort

Multi-column sort

Hold Shift and click additional column headers to add secondary sort criteria. The sort order is shown by numbered indicators on the column headers.

Example: Sort by "Priority" descending, then by "Due Date" ascending — high priority items first, with ties broken by due date.

Searching

Use the search box above the table to search across all text columns. The search filters rows in real time as you type.

Saving filter views

If you frequently use the same filter combination:

  1. Set up your filters
  2. Click Save View
  3. Name the view
  4. Access it later from the views dropdown

Saved views are available to everyone with access to the table.

Row count

The row count at the bottom of the table updates to show how many rows match your current filters out of the total.
